That was not the postpone key.  D'Oh.

This is getting all very complicated - you're requiring the template 
author (even if it is you) to know how the internals of your objects 
work.  I'd be tempted to say at this point that you really should be doing 
it in Perl.

Of course, you're more than welcome to disagree :-)

I'd write a simple wrapping plugin at this point that has methods like you 
describe adding to the actual class itself.  This way when the underlying 
module changes your templates won't need to be rewritten.
